Victoria Beckham Planning Her Move Back To Europe?
Now that we know that David Beckham is looking to remain in Milan, Italy to play professional soccer with AC Milan (leaving his former team, the LA Galaxy, in a lurch), we have to look to the real boss in the Beckham family — Victoria Beckham — to see if the fam will really be packing up their shizz and are planning to move back to Europe. Yesterday afternoon, Vicki B. donned a silvery Inspector Gadget-like trenchcoat (to brave the SoCal rain) and made her way to LAX Airport to fly back to London, England. Just this week, new reports began to surface that VB is being courted by Simon Cowell to sign on to be a judge on the UK competitive reality TV series X-Factor (which is like our version of American Idol which is like the original UK series Pop Idol). Rumor has it, Cowell wants to replace current judge Dannii Minouge with Posh. If Becks does end up staying in Italy, it seems feasible to me that VB would be interested in taking this gig:
The former Spice Girl was said to be considering an offer of more than £1million a series in a move which could help her invigorate her showbusiness career. Mr Cowell wanted her to replace Miss Minogue before the new series of the highly-popular ITV programme in the autumn, the story claimed. Mrs Beckham, 34, has been living in Los Angeles with her children while her husband David plays football for the LA Galaxy. But if he transfers to AC Milan, where he is currently on loan, she could consider moving back to Europe and joining X Factor. She is also said to have been tempted after seeing the success fellow WAG and singer Cheryl Cole, 25, has had since joining as a judge, the report claimed. A friend told the Daily Mail: “She doesn’t want to come back to Europe with her tail between her legs. But if she can return here to be on the X Factor, then that is different.” The move could cause tension between Mrs Beckham and Mrs Cole – something which may have positively influenced mischievous Cowell’s decision. Although the two women are friends, the Girls Aloud singer has made a series of negative comments about her contemporary Posh recently. In January, she criticised her for her lack of support when the allegations of her husband Ashley Cole’s infidelity surfaced. And she was recently quoted as saying that Mrs Beckham’s fashion range of dresses was for “older women” and “not something (Girls Aloud) would wear”. Simon Cowell’s spokesman Max Clifford told the Mail: “Simon speaks very highly of Victoria. I know he likes her a lot. This deal has not been mentioned to me.” A spokesman for Simon Cowell denied the story and said: “It’s complete rubbish. Nobody has ever had a conversation with Victoria Beckham or her people about this. She has not even been considered for the job.”
Blah. This Beckham move back to Europe is sounding more and more like it’s going to come to pass. VB and the boys will, most likely, relocate back to England while Becks gets a bachelor pad in Milan and the family flies back and forth , just like he did when he played for Real Madrid in Spain. Personally, I love that Dannii Minogue is a judge on X-Factor but I could see Cowell doing something as shitty as dumping Dannii for Vicki B. In any even, even if VB doesn’t join X-Factor, I’m sure she’ll have plenty of things to keep her occupied in the UK. I’ll be sad to see the family go but … as I said, I completely understand. Boo.

I’m pretty much over the whole Becks and Posh thing. He knew what he was getting into and still chose to go to the Galaxy. Leaving them like that is pretty shitty, IMO. Whatevs.

Ah! I love that coat! I must have it!

I think everyone is over them, honestly. Posh knows it is all an act (what she does and the way she acts). She is open about it. I doubt behind closed doors she is like that with her three sons.
